Live with a Qualified Host Family at their Home while being Supported

Excel Care Access offers Host Home services as part of our commitment to providing inclusive, community-based living solutions. A Host Home is a unique residential option that allows individuals with intellectual, developmental, or physical disabilities to live in a family-like setting with a carefully matched host family. This alternative to traditional care settings promotes a more personal, supportive environment where individuals can thrive.

​

What is a Host Home? 
In a Host Home, individuals live with a qualified host family who provides support with daily living activities, offers companionship, and helps integrate the individual into the family and community. Host families are carefully selected based on their ability to meet the needs of the individual, creating a safe, nurturing environment where everyone can build lasting, meaningful relationships.

 

Personalized Support in a Family Setting 
Excel Care Access ensures that each person’s care is tailored to their unique needs and goals. Host Home services may include:

Daily Living Support: Assistance with personal care, medication management, meal preparation, and household tasks in a home-like environment.
Community Engagement: Encouraging participation in community activities, events, and hobbies to promote social interaction and a sense of belonging.
Skill Development: Helping individuals improve their independent living skills, such as cooking, budgeting, and decision-making.
Behavioral and Emotional Support: Providing guidance and support in managing behavioral challenges and emotional well-being.
24/7 Availability: Host families are available around the clock to provide supervision, care, and support based on the individual’s needs.

​

Why Choose a Host Home? 
Host Homes offers a more personalized and community-centered alternative to other residential care options. Individuals benefit from the stability of living in a family setting, where they can form close bonds and have greater control over their daily lives. Host Homes are ideal for those who value independence but need support with certain aspects of daily living.

At Excel Care Access, we take great care in matching individuals with the right host families to ensure that each placement is successful and meets the needs and preferences of the individual. Our team provides ongoing support to both the individual and the host family, fostering an environment where everyone feels valued, supported, and empowered.
